I have the Ender-3 V2 printer and as far as I can tell I have a level bed, however when I get about 20 minutes into a print, if I am lucky to get that far, whatever I am printing will no longer stick to the bed and start to move. I am using the inland PLA filament and the box tells me to have a...

I will provide a screenshot later, but for some reason when I open the file explorer to go to one of my drives, I have double of all my drives. I have tried to remove them but nothing works. The weird thing is that I have the icon next to the clock that asks if I want to safely remove the...
